I'd like to say something,
I don't have words, so a thread of facts will have to do.
"Nationalism in different shapes &forms is powerfully transforming the politics of the British Isles, a development that gathered pace over the last 5 yrs"
From 2019
"The Government has failed to give assurances that it will not repeal or replace the Human Rights Act – a stark contrast to its proclaimed commitment to ‘shared values of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms'."
"The funding is in addition to the @Conservatives manifesto pledge to increase defence spending by 0.5% points above inflation each year.
Combined, the two measures will lift the UK’s defence budget by £21.5 billion by March 2025, to £63 billion"
"Police have now made two arrests in connection with online abuse directed against Gina Miller, the leader of the Brexit legal challenge, which was settled by the Supreme Court yesterday."
"The First World War general’s disastrous conduct of the Battle of the Somme vies with Johnson’s failures during the pandemic – and that is not the only thing they have in common"
"Since the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic, 15 individuals with strong connections to the Conservative Party, parliamentarians or Government representatives have been linked to companies awarded more than £2 billion in COVID-related contracts"
The head of the Church

Is praying for Alexander De feiffel Johnson & his millionaire,
(With multiple homes & a dodgy record in banking) mate, Sunak.
"As I hope to show here, anti-intellectualism is deeply rooted in the political history of Britain and has long performed a strategic conservative ideological function – which is to shield the status quo from systematic criticism."
England has:

- 10 million "precariously employed"
-5.5 million paid below living wage
-4.7 on furlough
- 22,000 fewer NHS beds
-4.5 million waiting for treatment
1,000 Billionaires made £2.7 TRILLION

Noam Chomsky on the media lies about @jeremycorbyn .

Yet now, the company has served notice on its entire workforce& is pushing employees to accept significantly worse terms&conditions of employment" unison.org.uk/news/article/2…
“This corporate giant has made billions off the backs of workers."
The late, great,
David Graeber warning us what would happen if the media lies drowned out the truth about
Anti Semitism in 2019.
Rest in power, Brother. 🙏
BBC casually admitting that they've been lying for 10 yrs
We are a monetarily sovereign nation & cannot go bankrupt.
Austerity
-Which was never an economic need, it was/is an ideology

Has killed at least 150,000 souls in this very rich country,
As they lied for the government
In 2017 @Conservatives starved Stephen to death
His "benefit payments" won on appeal,
paid for his funeral
They're still doing it
"Great" Britain
"An MP fought back tears as she read out the names of people who have died after experiencing difficulties with the benefits system"
"Abrahams spent almost 3 minutes reading out more than 20 names of those affected, and referred to how some died after ‘taking (his/her) own life after being found fit for work’ or through illness after losing their benefits."
‘When you reap the harvest of your land, moreover, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field nor gather the gleaning of your harvest; you are to leave them for the needy and the alien.
I am the Lord your God.’”
"In 1947, Cyril Radcliffe was tasked with drawing the border between India and the newly created state of Pakistan over the course of a single lunch." 2/
"After Cyril Radcliffe split the subcontinent along religious lines, uprooting over 10 million people, Hindus in Pakistan and Muslims in India were forced to escape their homes as the situation quickly descended into violence." 3/
"Keir Starmer’s record so far makes grim reading. So far, the Labour leader has:
• broken Labour rules to withdraw the whip from his predecessor Jeremy Corbyn
"• ..While the party tries to ban Labour members from discussing and voting among themselves, on the basis that disciplinary matters are supposedly confidential
• opposed Black Lives Matter protests by condemning the toppling.."
"•By condemning the toppling of a slaver’s statue, dismissing out of hand BLM’s ‘defund the police’ campaign and dismissing the entire movement as a mere ‘moment‘, while publishing a token ‘taking the knee’ photo from his LOTO office " @skwawkbox
"It could be that Corbyn manages to run the gauntlet&get elected.
It’s possible. You should know, we won’t wait for him to do those things to begin to push back.
We will do our level best. It’s too risky and too important and too hard once it’s..happened.”
"A huge cache of leaked WhatsApp messages and emails show senior officials from the party’s right wing, who worked at its HQ, became despondent as Labour climbed in the polls during the election campaign despite their efforts."
